SPORTING NOTES [Continued from First Page] caught the ball and taken one step in any direction, provided that any interference that is incidental to a bona fide attempt to catch or inter- cept the ball shall not come within this prohibition.” According to this rule the old style of body check- ing or diving into a player waiting to receive a pass is forbidden, and the only way of intercepting a pass is to catch it or get it -in the scramble. ‘A pass may now be made over the line of scrimmage at any point, The rule that the ball must cross the scrimmage line five yards from the center has been abolished. The long pass has been in a measure done away with, no pass now being allowed to go more than twenty yards beyond the scrimmage line. Another feature of this year’s rules is that the pass must be made from a point at least five yards back of the line of scrimmage. Onside Kick Changed. “The onmside kick has been changed so that no player of the side which kicked shall be onside and eligible to receive the ball until it has hit the ground at least twenty yards from the scrimmage line. In the twenty-yard area the offensive side shall rot interfere with their opponents in any way, nor shall the defensive side interfere with their opponents until the side which has kicked advances ‘twenty yards be- yond the scrimmage line. In this case the players on the defense may use their hands and arms to push opponents out of the way to get the ball or use their arms close to their bodies to protect the man carrying the ball. This rule makes an area of twenty yards beyond the scrim- mage line, in which, in the case of kicks and forward passes, the players are not to interefere with each other. A kick, like a forward pass, must be made from a point five yards back of the line of scrimmage. “The style of tacklng has been changed under the new code. The diving tackle, which was the most approved method of stopping a run- ner, has been tabooed, and now a tackler must have at least one foot on the ground when he makes a tackle. “The changes in the rules will not work such a radical departure from the style of play and general appear- ance of the game as football follow- ers might at first be led to -believe. While the new rules are bound to cause numerous innovations in the style of attack, and much work and study on ‘the part of coaches and players, this matter concerns coaches alone and makes no difference to the public. The game as played next fall will be so nearly like the game of other years that little difference will be noticed by the average en- thusiast. There will be plenty of line play and more of the open run- ning game than ever before. Itis difficult to predict the result of the changes and effect they will have on the game until the first contests of the season have been played.” corner, at 2 p. m., church building.

Chicago, Aug. 18.—Allegations that a high school principal has made money—easily and, in aggregate, to a large amount—by furnishing medical students with fake certificates of scholarships is the latest sensation in connection with the medical scandal. Assistant State’s Attorney Victor P. Arnold says he got direct evidence of the scheme whereby students have obtained a hlgh school “education” for $10. Frank Kiley, a representative of his office, obtained one of the high school medical certificates from F. M. Crosby, former principal of the May- wood high school. Assistant State’s Attorney Arnold estimates that from 3,000 to 5,000 certificates and diplomas have been issued to Chicago medical students to allow them to evade the state law in the last few years. GAYNOR'S RECOVERY ASSURED Condition Continues to Satisfy Attend- ing Physicians. Hoboken, N. J., Aug. 18 —The con- dition of Mayor Gaynor continues to give satisfaction to the attending sur- geons and ‘his recovery is now regard- ed as assyred. The latest bulletin is- sued is as follows: “The mayor passed a very good night. He slept well, enjoyed his breakfast and is gaining strength. Temperature, 99%%; respiration, 17; pulse, 77.” It is now generally believed that the mayor will undergo an operation for the removal of the bullet just as soon as his physicians feel that he is strong enough. The operation will be simple, it is said, and will be attended by little danger, if any. FOG CAUSE OF ACCIDENTS Score of Persons Injured in Series of Wrecks at Chicago. Chicago, Aug. 18.—A dense fog overhanging Chicago was responsible for the injury of at least twenty per- sons, some severely, in traffic wrecks. Not less than twelve accidents are re- |-ported, the most severe of which came near being fatal for many persons. A westbound Chicago-Calumet su- burban car, crowded with passengers, ran into an open switch while speed- ing at forty miles an hour. The car was wrecked and piled in a ditch. All the passengers were slightly in- Jjured and three young women were taken to the hospital. No serious injuries are reported among the other crashes. Charged With Mail Theft. Stillwater, Minn,, Aug. 19.—Mike Madden is in the local jail awaiting a hearing before A. E. Doe, . United States commissioner, on a charge of stealing a registered envelope ad- dressed to the postmaster of Superior, Wis. In the envelope were notes to the aggregate . value of $15,000 ad- dressed to the Superior State bank. LONGWORTH T0 OPPOSE CANNON Ohio Congressman [ssues Statement. NO HOPE FOR UNCLE JOE Roosevelt's Son-in-Law De- Speaker Cannot Be Re- Elected and He Openly Asserts He Will Fight Him in' the Republican Caucus—Declaration Made Follow- Ing Conference With President Taft. Colonel clares Beverly, Mass., Aug. 19.—Represen- tative Nicholas Longworth of Ohio gave out a statement in which he says he will never support Speaker Cannon again and that he does not believe Mr. Cannon ever can be re-elected. This is regarded as the actual begin- ning of the real fight on Mr. Cannon. Mr. Longworth’s statement is as fol- lows: “In view of Mr. Cannon’s unequivo- cal declaration that he intends to be a candidate for speaker of the next house I think it s incumbent upon those of us who are candidates for membership in the next house, who have made up our minds upon our course of action and have positive views on the subject, to state our position publicly. Had Mr. Cannon not made this announcement, and had it remained doubtful whether he would be a candidate or not, it was my in- tention not to commit myself before election as to whom I should or should not support for speaker. But since Mr. Cannon has, in his speeches so far in the campaign and in his re- cent declaration, made his candidacy for the speakership an issue, I for one do not propose to dodge that issue. will Oppo_leq‘,‘uncle Joe.” . “I shall oppose:Mr. Cannon’s elec- tion as speaker and I shall do so in the manner that I consider proper and effective in the settlement of contro- versies in my party, namely, in the Republican caucus. “I made up my mind before the ad- Jjournment of the Tast session of con- gress that Mr. Cannon could not be re-elected speaker and my opinion has been strengthened since through cor- respondence and talks with my col- leagues. “I am not referring to those who have openly opposed him in the past, but to those who, like myself, have supported him, “I am absolutely ‘convinced if there is a full attendance at the Republican caucus that Mr. Cannon cannot be again elected speaker.” The fact that the statement was given out immediately following the conference at ‘the summer White House regarding plans for the coming congressional campaign is taken here as indicating that President Taft as well as Vice President Sherman ‘is behind the movement to eliminate Mr. Cannon. CANNON SHOWN INTERVIEW Refuses to Reply to ‘Longworth State- ment at Present. Danville, IIl,, Aug. 19.—Speaker Can- non, when shown the dispatch from Beverly, Mass,, regarding the state- ment given out by Representative Nicholas Longworth, said: “Mr. Cannon declines to answer any statement which Mr. Nicholas Long- worth may or may mot have made un- til he sees it. I-do not answer any statements which I believe to be fakes that mischievous parties make. It is time enough for me to answer the president of the United States if he has any statement to make touching on the Republicanism of the speaker of the house of representatives when he makes that statement under his own hand. I will not fight windmills filled by breezes blown from lungs of political .or personal enemies or cow- ards.” GREAT STRIKE IS PROPOSED Walkout of Every Sailor and Stoker in_Europe. Copenhagen, Adg 19.—A two weeks’ strike of every sailor and stoker in Europe will be proposed at the inter- national congress of sailors and fire- men here next week.

Only within | < the past few months has come the annonncement that prices have gone \ up again owing to the greater cost of == = labor and other reasons. By means of our purchasing power and greatly //// I\\\\\ increased business we are able to purchase our Diamonds Direct from the Importers and Cutters in Original Packets; allows us to sell as cheap as the jobbers. There is no middleman to share any por- - tion of the profit. Even the Jeweler in the Large Cities cannot sell Diamonds at figures we can. WHY ? The expense of doing business is our chief reason. High Rents and numberless other expenses which burden, we are not compelled to bear. A few snaps in Diamonds we have at this date, but will not remain with us long at these figures. One 2 carat size, perfect, fine whits, $320.00 One 7-8 carat size, white, slightly imperfect, $125.00 One 1-2 carat size, white, $60 If you are at all interested step in and ask to be shown what we have in DIAMONDS GEO.
